Is that enough egocentricism for you ?

There has not been until now a study of this breadth and depth anywhere. 

Yet another recent peer-reviewed study has been published, amplifying the incredible dangers of the experimental mRNA COVID jabs. We recently reported on a groundbreaking new study proving that the tyrannical public response—including lockdowns, the mandated deadly jabs, drastic medical interventions, and so on—to COVID-19 caused more deaths than COVID-19 itself. And now, a study of 9.2 million South Koreans published in Nature Communications exposes an unprecedented increased risk of myocarditis and pericarditis after receiving the gene-damaging mRNA jabs. Specifically, the study reveals a 620 percent increased risk of myocarditis and a 175 percent higher risk of pericarditis after the shots. But it doesn’t end there. Researchers also discovered an increased risk of neurological disorders—including Alzheimer’s—and increased risks of numerous autoimmune conditions, especially after booster shots.

and,

As broken down by CHD, to conduct the study, researchers analyzed data from 9,258,803 random individuals (approximately 20 percent of South Korea’s total population) who had been given at least one dose of an mRNA COVID-19 shot—a group they called the primary cohort. Then, they randomly split this number into two subgroups—a vaccination cohort of 4,445,000 participants and a historical control cohort of 4,444,932 participants.

The study notes that because COVID-19 vaccination was conducted nationwide in South Korea, as of October 2022, the overall vaccination coverage rate among adults meeting the requirements for the primary series of each COVID-19 vaccine introduced in South Korea was 96.6 percent. With this high number, the study authors remarked that using unvaccinated individuals as controls for comparison could have led to unacceptable cohort selection and potential selection bias. Thus, they used historical controls as comparators.

God bless Tracy Beanz and Michelle Edwards.

    Texas man tracks down grandfather’s WWII military jacket riddled with shrapnel holes.
    Pearland, Texas, man finds late grandfather’s military uniform thanks to war memorabilia collector from Missouri.

    A paramedic with the Houston Fire Department eager to learn more about his late grandfather’s military service had a stroke of luck after he began his research.

    Mark Holmes of Pearland, Texas, told Fox News Digital that a simple Google search not only taught him about his paternal grandfather, William Watson Holmes, and his service to America, but it led him to a physical piece of history.

    William Watson Holmes served as a Marine during World War II and was a Purple Heart recipient.

    “I had always kind of wondered what my grandpa did in the war. I talked to my dad about it a few times, and my dad, all he knew was one of the islands he went to, was called Roi-Namur in the Marshall Islands. Beyond that, I didn’t know anything other than he got a Purple Heart,” Mark Holmes said, adding that when he was 3 months old, his grandfather died.

    As luck would have it, Mark Holmes came across a collector’s website, U.S. Militaria Forum. He signed up and shared his grandfather’s story on the page to connect with other users, and it appeared one collector had an interesting discovery to offer.

    The collector, Austin Wideman, spent years collecting World War II memorabilia, having close to 40 named pieces in his Marine collection.

    Morning all. BIL’s service was Thursday, great turnout. BIL was all about fishing and hunting, he was part of what was referred to as the heavy hitters in Galveston offshore fishing circles. Several came and got up to speak giving their heartfelt farewells, he was one of a kind and the stories were abundant. We had a post service get together here at the house, best guesstimate was about forty people, everyone was so gracious tons of food brought.

    We also closed on my parents house yesterday morning, my sweet wife has been a busy beaver, handling the sale pro bono for us, as well as doing most of the heavy lifting taking care of her brother’s funeral arrangements. Oh, and she is flying out to Memphis in the morning for Elvis Week. Although a lot to handle all at one time, being busy has kept her mind busy and not dwell. This coming week will help her reset and regroup.

    With rainouts and my son’s work, we have missed a lot of racing this season but we are back at it tonight in Paige, Tx other side of Giddings at Cotton Bowl Speedway. Big race, this is the second North vs South meetup where we run against a rival series that runs tracks from Waco and up in Texas, whereas our series runs southern tracks. Last spring we had 45 cars show up. We spent yesterday getting the car switched back to dirt setup from asphalt, had to replace one tire, tried our hand at replacing it ourselves instead of taking it down to the tire shop. Went without a problem.

    The headline article I posted today is stunning. It involved millions of people over years of time. South Korea had a 96.6% inoculation rate for adults. Their government should sue Pfizer and Moderna on behalf of the entire population. No one can ignore this study without looking like a complete fool.

    This leaves me speechless. Everyone of these people should be fired.

    It was a woman USSS agent caught on camera taping over the lens.

    Secret Service taped over a Berkshire business’s security camera while Kamala Harris was in Mass.

    Soon after, strangers came into the salon — which was closed and locked — to use the bathroom.

    The business owner said she felt “violated.”

    It was worse than a bad hair day.

    Secret Service agents taped over a security camera and broke into a Massachusetts hair salon while securing the area for a Kamala Harris campaign event, according to the salon’s owner.

    I’m up and in better shape than I thought I’d be in. The value of ice packs on dentally challenged cheeks cannot be overstated.

    As I mentioned yesterday, I really like Dr. Austen. I have been impressed so far with all of my dentists; they all seem to be quite competent. When Dr. Austen said he was going to “free drill” into my jaw when the surgical guide didn’t fit (because my teeth move around), I had concerns. “Don’t worry, Mrs. Tedtam, I’ve done so many of these that my instructors have told me I don’t have to get permission to free drill if necessary.” He was right. In fact, the drilling was done so well that the implant was fitted so tightly that we didn’t have to do like the other implants – close up the site and wait for the implant to integrate into the bone, which involves a waiting period of several months or more. (We are planning for a six month wait after my next one graft, on that Everest looking hole from my college years extraction.) When the implant is firmly in place, a temporary type of cap is screwed onto the implant to give the gum tissue time to heal up around the site.

    So, he got permission from his instructor to go ahead and put the healing abutment on. He screwed that on and after a few stitches, he moved on to the extraction of my baby tooth on the top jaw.

    So, with new, fresh holes in my mouth, I am restricted to scrambled eggs and cottage cheese for a while.

    Dr. Austen and his assistant for the day, a younger dental student, were having an interesting conversation during my procedure. Since I’m interested in things medical and science, I found the convo quite interesting.

    Dr. Austen is doing a study on “red bacteria” in the mouth and it’s relationship to high blood pressure. His paper is on non-surgical techniques for managing high blood pressure. There are already strong indications that there is a connection between these red bacteria and HBP; moving the bacterial populations towards more “blue” and “green” bacteria may help to lower the BP.

    I don’t know about the colors they were talking about; possibly gram staining? I do know there is a connection between dental health and the heart, so it makes sense. Dr. Austen told me that there are few connections between medical care and and dental care, but this may be one area where the two fields overlap.

    The highly esteemed Mackubin Thomas Owens sorts out the controversy over Tim Walz’s military resume. Anything Dr. Owens writes is well worth reading.

    Why does this matter? Because Walz’s decision to leave at such a critical time essentially undermined his battalion’s unit cohesion, the fundamental foundation of military effectiveness. This unit cohesion depends upon the mutual trust among soldiers and between soldiers and their leaders. Anyone who has served in the military, officer or enlisted, knows that the backbone of any unit is the NCO. For an NCO, especially the unit’s senior NCO to voluntarily leave his troops as they are preparing for a combat deployment seems to me to be a dereliction of duty.

    Critics have accused Walz of “cowardice” and “treason” which is nonsense. But the fact is that he did place his personal interest above loyalty to his soldiers. That decision reveals a serious character flaw.

    The controversy has seen the revival of certain old tropes, including “stolen valor” applied to Walz and “swift boating” to describe his critics. For a veteran, “stolen valor” is the greatest of all sins. The terms come from the title of a book by a friend of mine, B.G. “Jugg” Burkett, about the widespread misrepresentation of service in Vietnam. Using the Freedom of Information Act to examine service records, he discovered that during the 1980s and 1990s, some 1,700 individuals, including celebrities, had fabricated their war stories. Many had never even been in the service. Many had been but had never been in Vietnam. The profusion of claims by frauds to have been in this war or that, or to have been awarded this medal or that, led to the passage of the Stolen Valor Act of 2013 (Public Law 113-12), which makes it a crime to lie about service in order to receive benefits or money from others. For me, calling out and publicly humiliating a fraud is punishment enough.

    Excerpts from American Thinker writer Alex Gordon on the attitudes of progressive American Jews.

    On Nov. 10, 2018, the 80th anniversary of Kristallnacht in Nazi Germany, The Times of Israel‘s reporter, Matt Lebovic, discussed the attitudes of American Jews toward the events of Kristallnacht on Nov. 9-10, 1938:

    When American Jews learned of Nazi Germany’s Kristallnacht pogrom 80 years ago, the community’s leaders were determined to keep a lid on people’s emotions.

    During the night of November 9-10, Nazi-led “demonstrators” murdered 100 German Jews in a nationwide orgy of violence. Thirty thousand Jews were rounded up for concentration camps, and more than 200 synagogues became smoldering ruins. Although the pogrom was described as Germany’s most bloody assault on Jews since the Middle Ages, few Jewish leaders in the US were prepared to agitate. Most notably, the influential General Jewish Council insisted on maintaining radio silence following Kristallnacht.

    and this,

    American Jews did nothing to ensure that Jews fleeing Europe, Jews in distress, received entry visas and escaped to the United States.

    Irving Howe, a Jewish-American democratic socialist, later called this neglect of the Holocaust in the U.S. “a serious moral failure on our part.”

    In the essay The Moral Failure of American Jewish Intellectuals in the book Jews Against Themselves (2015), American researcher Edward Alexander writes about the silence of “American Jewish intellectuals” and notes their “deafness” to the danger of the Holocaust and to the significance of the revival of the Jewish state.

    He draws an analogy between medieval and contemporary American Jewish apostates who are willing to sacrifice the Jewish state for the sake of “justice” and, in fact, to make them look good in the eyes of non-Jews.

    Uh-oh !

    In a shocking move, Aerosmith announced today that Axl Rose will be replacing Steven Tyler as lead singer of the band. This move came minutes after the band announced they were retiring from touring because Tyler had injured his vocal cords. An unnamed alleged source implied that Tyler maybe heading back to an alleged rehab, allegedly. Aerosmith will go on.

     In the past, Aerosmith had to push back the start of their Las Vegas residency by three months so Steven Tyler can complete a drug treatment program. According to a statement by the band, he had relapsed following surgery to remove a boil on his buttocks. This did not please the band and especially infuriated Joe Perry.

    If you are concerned about your weight and you eat and drink stuff containing this fake sweetener, you are better off eating cane sugar.

    No such effect was seen with sugar, noted a team led by Dr. Stanley Hazen, chair of cardiovascular and metabolic sciences at the Cleveland Clinic‘s Lerner Research Institute.

    “Many professional societies and clinicians routinely recommend that people at high cardiovascular risk — those with obesity, diabetes or metabolic syndrome — consume foods that contain sugar substitutes rather than sugar,” Kazen explained in a clinic news release.

    and,

    In the new study, 20 healthy volunteers were given a dose of erythritol equivalent to that found in a sugarless muffin or can of diet soda.

    Blood levels of erythritol rose 1,000-fold soon after, the researchers found, and that was accompanied by a big rise in a blood clot formation among the volunteers.

    It’s amazing to me how every one of these sugar substitutes over the years have turned out to be “killers”. The worst, of course, is high fructose corn syrup. Our farmers have been corrupted with ethanol in fuel and high fructose corn syrup as a sugar substitute in processed food. I would be happy for both to be outlawed.

    One of the most persistent monopolies in America has been the cane sugar growers in Florida and Louisiana. They have managed through lobbying and legalized bribery of politicians, Republican and Democrat, to keep the prices of real cane sugar so high it drove the food industry to find other sweeteners. Then, of course, everybody got fat, have diabetes and turn to Ozempic. What a scam. They all sound like heroin and coke dealers.

    Apropos of nothing at the moment, but a big secret among Muslims living anywhere in the West or the Far East is they buy as much Kosher food as they can because the laws of Kashrut are much stricter than Halal and it is not anywhere as widely available in non-Islamic countries. Muslims know they are safe eating Kosher and it is never Haram. They won’t admit it though.

    LONDON — In a surprise move today, Elon Musk purchased the entirety of the United Kingdom in order to allow citizens to again have the freedom of speech they once enjoyed.

    “How much is it?” asked Musk in a post on X, after user ‘Tom_Bomb_420’ had posted that Musk should consider purchasing the former empire. Musk then followed up with a post of a thinking emoji, a sure sign that the billionaire was seriously weighing the pros and cons of purchasing the United Kingdom.

    Though several British politicians insisted that one could not simply purchase their country, Musk simply responded, “LOL just did.”

    While Musk reportedly paid a hefty sum for the islands, he felt the purchase justified in order to safeguard the sharing of dank memes. “Every man, woman and child deserves the opportunity to share memes,” explained Musk. “A South African buying the U.K. has a delicious irony for sure – but trust me, it’s all about the memes, baby.”

    At publishing time, Elon Musk had reportedly begun considering buying America after hearing the Democratic ticket’s position on the First Amendment.

    It’s interesting because the Siena people usually run a decent polling operation. I don’t really trust any of them except Gallup, but this poll with the NYT looks a lot like a push-poll written with Harris campaign staff.

    That sound you hear is the rejoicing of the progressives and their media pals over the new New York Times-Siena poll, as we are less than 24 hours until the week’s Sunday shows, which seems to show Democrat nominee and Vice President Kamala Harris leading Republican nominee Donald Trump in three, key battleground states. But there are strong reasons to doubt what’s usually a reliable polling outfit.

    oh but wait,

    There are a couple of problems I see immediately, in the way the poll was conducted; the sample size is a tiny, 600 people. And the margin of error ranges from 4.3 to nearly 5 points, which skews to the high side for my taste.

    But analyst Ryan Girdusky says there are even more “very big problems” with the poll: 

    Trump isn’t losing seniors by 12

    Harris isn’t tied with white voters

    Trump’s margin with non-college whites is in the 30s, not 13.

    I’d guess there’s some over sampling among older liberal women

    and,

    This poll has Harris winning seniors in Michigan by 20, a 27 point swing from 2020. It’s just not in the cards.

    The problem with crosstabs is in some cases like Asians, Hispanics, or blacks the sample sizes are too small to get accurate numbers and with seniors, there’s a tendency of overly active liberals (either registered D’s or Indies who always vote D) to want to answer the polls. Happened in 2020 and 2016 as well.

    Spike Cohen on X yesterday responding to the outrageous threat from UK police they will prosecute and extradite Americans for leaving mean tweets about the preposterous imbeciles running the British police departments.

    I’ve never been more grateful that our forefathers crossed the Delaware on Christmas to kill British law enforcers.

    The UK.gov fascist threat tweet is here. it has 38.5 million views and only 7,117 “likes”. The UK.gov cops also closed off the “replies” count
    so the world can’t see how badly it has been rated. The likes/views ratio is bad enough.

    Terence K. Williams is a black American comedian asking:

    Kamala Harris is using black curtains to cover up empty seats at her rallies

    Why is she doing this

    Terence also has his own online food empire. Order yourself some !

    I had momentarily forgotten there was a woman member, Mazie Hirono, of the US Senate who is even dumber than Kamala back in her brief 4 year spell as a senator.

    Kamala Harris is a bigot.

    Forgive the blunt delivery, but there isn’t really any nuance to offer: The Democrats’ presidential nominee has long since stripped it away with her blatant discrimination against people of faith, particularly Catholics.

    Witness her stunning attack on the venerable Knights of Columbus in 2018, during Brian Buescher’s nomination hearing for a federal judgeship.

    Then-Sen. Harris subtly criticized the charitable and fraternal organization for being an “all-male society comprised primarily of Catholic men,” then not-so-subtly slammed it for adhering to his faith’s core — or “extremist,” to use her word — beliefs about life and family.

    She implied that Buescher’s membership in the group basically made him unfit for the bench, setting up Sen. Mazie Hirono of Hawaii to ask if the nominee would, if confirmed, “end [his] membership with this organization to avoid any appearance of bias.”

    That’s what they call a religious test for office, and it’s illegal. See the US Constitution, Article VI, for more on that.

    Every sub 40 y.o. really needs to see this.
    Perhaps if they actually heard it from one of the victims, they might re-think their positions.

    Walz went on MSNBC to support censoring disinformation and declared, “There’s no guarantee to free speech on misinformation or hate speech, and especially around our democracy.”—totalitarian rule. I fixed it for the communist last Walz.

    Kind of interesting

    Las Vegas event center ‘reaches capacity’ during Kamala Harris campaign rally

    But not one picture of the rally even in the TV piece. ALL OUTSIDE. When I went to a GW Bush Rally there were plenty of TV videos of the rally and the places were packed.

    Speculum News NY1 Says Michigan rally was yuuuugggeeee. Yhis is the officialt “D” picture that is supposedly pristine non-AI showing a yuuugggeee crowd. I have just one question. Where are the signs in the middle of the crowd? Just a couple of blue signs in the rear? Red signs packed toward the front? The rallies I have been too there was signs aplenty. I am calling bovine processed hay on the “D”amalas.

    I saw a video debunking a K crowd next to AF2. The video commenter noted that there was no reflection of any of those people in the shiny reflective strip on the side of the plane. There was also mention of the awkward hands on the “people”. It seems AI hasn’t been able to get hands right. Yet.

    AI – it’s on the loose. We talked about this when it first became a thing, how it’d be manipulated to manipulate the manipulatable.

    I found an X on this topic: https://x.com/LauraLoomer/status/1822112612118602122

    Someone may have posted this, but the evil is so massive:

    Undercover video of Planned Parenthood employees casually discussing the dissection and distribution of baby body parts.

    As casually as discussing the menu at their favorite restaurant. Horrifying.

    Raheem Kassam at The National Pulse on Harris/Walz fakery::

    Perhaps you’ve seen the picture originally peddled by the Harris-Walz campaign. At a slight glance, it appears to show gargantuan crowds gathered below Air Force 2 for an appearance by Joe Biden’s Vice President. There’s a problem, however. The image below appears doctored, if not AI-generated, in large parts.

    The phones in the image all appear to be showing wildly different things, and some hands, fingers, and thumbs are subtly warped. There are no reflections of the crowds in the plane’s livery. In fact, there’s no reflection of anything.

    To be clear, the audience was real, but the pictures were so wildly digitally enhanced so as to cause doubt. Why? Who knows.

    Laura Loomer is a bit of a head case, but she’s not always wrong:

    Kamala Harris’s campaign is using AI to manipulate her campaign photos and videos. And it’s all being orchestrated by @MikeNellis

    , a senior advisor to Kamala Harris who works with Loren Merchan, the daughter of Judge Juan Merchan as I have previously reported.

    Why won’t the media talk about this? Kamala Harris’s photos and videos are manipulated. You can see it. It’s obvious.

    She never had any traction and now the media is using AI to dupe you into thinking her “crowds” are real when they are fake.

    Loren Merchan’s business partner even brags about being an advisor to @KamalaHarris

    and an AI expert in his X profile.

    The media is pushing out her pics but zoom into this pic below. It’s very clearly manipulated with AI. You can see hands and fingers popping out of people’s bodies due to the AI overlays.

    Deep State totalitariancrats and the deep state owned totalitariancrat media lying and faking photos of the communist duo’s so called rallies.

    that’s small potatoes compared to the inside hit job on Trump.

    What would Ferris Mueller do?

    “You didn’t know that Strozk hated Trump?
    ”know what?”

    The EU warns Elon Musk about tonight’s Donald Trump livestream on X.

    EU Commissioner Thierry Breton the EU will watch for “spillovers” that violate the Digital Services Act, such as “content that may incite violence, hate and racism in conjunction with major political – or societal – events around the world, including debates and interviews in the context of elections.”

    I’m completely reconsidering my stance on whether it is in the best interest of the United States to continue our current participation in NATO at all.

    What is the justification for being in a pact with a bunch of NeoCommunists?
